And it's pretty difficult to do any kind of reading on Chazhound without figuring out that we are a very pro-Pit/anti-BSL bunch here. I think GO was just trying to stir up ill feelings and really doesn't deserve your concern.
But that's the thing, why argue a close-minded, ignorant person when you know no one is going to win. I am dissapointed in you guys, because you (in general) are getting angry which is probably her goal. She refuses to be open-minded, and probably made some false facts that she read in some anti pitbull website (I read in a breed that the Pitbull was the 6th most popular breed, not 68th). I don't know why people are thinking I am trying to defend her... I am defending niether GO nor you guys, I am just saying that you should not get mad at her.

yeah she probably was. But just incase she comes back I want her to take a look at this picture. If my dog was SO vicous I must be crazy to let him this close to my daughter. Oh, and it's funny she still has all her arms and legs.

If we want to try and talk to her about the pitbull, we can do so. We make these decisions for ourselves. Why are you "dissapointed in us"? I don't see any reason to be.

All I am saying is that GO is most likely some close-minded, brain washed woman trying to stir up some trouble. I get dissapointed when people actually get mad and get a fit and call her stupid and stuff. You guys are getting nowhere when you do this, and you are just acheiving her goal to get you guys in a pussy fit!

LOL if I choose to give her a piece of mind, that's my choice. Yes all she was doing was stirring up trouble, we all know that. I don't care if she got what she wanted, I can form my own opinion. She can't expect to place something such as this on a large public message board without at least one peron disagreeing with her point of view.

Why? BECAUSE YOU SHOULDN'T EVEN GIVE THESE PEOPLE ATTENTION!!!! I hate it when some super pro-christian starts talking about how bad The Simpsons are (my favorite show), or start talking about how bad violent video games. But hey, I just ignore her! Fine, I don't care if you argue, you are just feeding the troll.

"This person is what is called a troll...someone who comes to a forum and starts trouble. Please don't feed the trolls!!!" - posted in another forum. A man posted that his dog was getting old. He said have enough money, so he wanted to know what size bullet he should use to shoot the dog. Everybody got pissed off...

Richie, you do not make choices for other people. You don't need to get upset because other people here chose do reply to GoldenOwner.

This is silly, you yelling at me for having an opinion and stating it. :rolleyes: If I want to post my opinion, I can.

well we are protecting a breed...
You call this protecting a breed? WHAT ARE WE DOING? We are having this pointless arguement! That isn't protecting a breed! You want to protect a breed? How about saving some pitbulls from some abusive owners, that protecting a breed!

Everyone has their own opinion, and when we gave her ours, she wouldn't listen, she kept on jabbering on and on how pitbulls are "loaded guns".

I won't go back on anything i said because GO is closed minded and ignorent and i was litterally in tears actualy TEARS
L4P, I admire you. But this I can't admire... there is no doubt in my mind that you love your dogs, but you have to ignore this. This was her goal, to put you in tears, to get you mad, and you let that happen... I am just going to end this. I am sure all of you want me to end this

This forum is nothing but arguements lately and I am sick of arguing! I argue enough with my husband at home about our husky and how we are going to pay for her cancer treatments and her amputation. Until people can learn to stop arguing I am through! I have tried to be calm but I can't be calm anymore. Richie you don't know what you are talking about. This is a public forum and we are free to post what we want. If we want to tell that woman off about saying bad things then we will. If you can't understand that then stop writing in this post and starting more arguements that aren't needed on this site. I am going to protect the breed from people who enjoy badmouthing it. Yeah she started her arguement and then she left, and you know what Richie you should have left well enough alone but no instead you have been on this forum ALL DAY restarting an arguement that didn't need to be started! So until this forum can stop arguing I'm done. I get enough arguing at home I don't need to come online to the one place that is suppose to be for people to express themselves and argue with everyone else on the planet too!

Well, one more thing b4 I end this: Do you think she believes pitbulls are a good breed? I am sorry to burst out and make you mad, but I think, no I KNOW if she had a gun and could shoot a pitbull, without going to jail she would do it. I know I was harsh, but your attempt at trying to educate GO failed.

Where the selas blooms
You guys thought I was already gone for the weekend, didn't you? ;)

Richie, you are being completely logical, but bear in mind this is an emotional issue. Pits and the rest did an admirable job of restraining themselves with her and considering the goad the posts were remarkably civil. Have you ever been utterly frustrated trying to explain something that is blatantly obvious to someone who has the attitude, "don't confuse me with the facts, my mind's already made up?" Makes you a little nuts sometimes. GO was exhibiting gross stupidity. Pointing out their glaring faults may not be the most polite or effective way to deal with someone like that, but sometimes people like that do get just what they're asking for.

We get a few through here who start out like GO, but actually do examine the information that's out there and change their minds. Those people wouldn't have that chance to learn differently if somebody hadn't cared passionately enough to present the evidence and kept after it.

Richie and Big are so right about one thing - GO's managed to get people at each others' throats who aren't even on different sides of the issue! Talk about someone being the equivalent of a loaded gun! There's nothing more dangerous than a loaded mouth - especially when the brain's packing dummy loads.

Personally, I think if there's any justice to be had, her dog will bite her on the butt :p

As I said in the thread I posted in the Fire Hydrant . . . PLAY NICE! I want to see everyone - [/B]EVERYONE when I get back!
